Praise for Home

“Beth’s sense of home is not of a static dwelling, but of a place of seasons, cycles, and lifespans, or experiences and memories. This is a book for your soul.”

— Freeman Patterson, The Telegraph-Journal

“Powning takes her camera, her pen and, most important, her spirit into the landscape. . . . The delicate, often beautiful photographs combine with a quietly spirited naturalistic prose in an Annie Dillard–Henry David Thoreau mode to produce a work evocative in both sensual and domestic ways.”

— The Globe and Mail

“Powning supplements her lyrical photos of the details of nature’s beauties with equally lyrical passages about the spiritual succor she finds on the boundaries between the natural and the human.”

— The Vancouver Sun

“In a world increasingly cynical and numb, Powning puts a light in the window for us all, wherever we call home.”

— The Chicago Tribune
